In November 2014 "Transneft" and "LUKOIL" plan to start the construction of the oil pipeline from Primorsk to Vysotsk, Vladimir Nazarov, the vice-president of "Transneft", stated at a press conference.
According to him, the construction of the oil products pipeline is scheduled for completion in a year. "LUKOIL" will cover its funding.
As Nazarov stated, it is planned to transport up to 1.5 tons of diesel fuel per year with a subsequent increase to 3 million tons. However, the maximum level of the oil products pipeline will be released after the completion of the "North" project in 2018.
